astri13Sleepy Hollow - love, love, love. Definite keeper.
Agents of Shield - it`s bland, generic and boring and everything I wouldn`t expect from a Whedon show. I mean, even Dollhouse generated a feeling for me: hatred. This one? Somehow I`m feeling so confused because I SHOULD like it and apparently, I`m missing something because I don`t. Buzzuh?
The Tomorrow People - what do you know, it`s bland, generic and boring, too. Doesn`t help that I find the side guy both much hotter and way more interesting than the lead. Also, if said lead is supposed to be Stephen Amell`s cousin, why isn`t he at least hot? I know, shallow, table for one.
BBC`s Atlantis - it`s like Merlin got turned into a vampire and lots its soul. Seriously, why is this so boring? There isn`t even trashy fun and slash. That was all these writers ever managed and now they don`t even get this right.
Haven`t watched Reign yet but word of mouth ain`t so great to begin with anyways.
In terms of my returning shows, they all do okay right now. The only one I`m side-eyeing atm is Vampire Diaries. At least they explained one of the most boring romances in TV.

Date: 2013-10-20 09:00 pm (UTC)I still love comic book stuff and I was hyped for this because I thought Whedon did an exemplary job with the Avengers. And the best thing about his shows (minus Dollhouse) was IMO the character work.
Which is why I`ve been disappointed with Shield so far. Especially the geeks Fitzsimmons just get on my nerves rather than I find them endearing.
